Renamy Charcoal Nigeria supplies restaurant-grade Ayin, BBQ and bulk hardwood lump charcoal in full container loads — graded by hand, inspected before bagging and shipped from Lagos with complete export documentation.
Renamy Charcoal Nigeria connects Nigeria's long-established hardwood charcoal producing regions with importers, wholesalers and distributors who need dependable quality, container after container.
We manage the stages that decide whether a shipment performs: selecting dense hardwood charcoal from producing communities, allowing it to cool and weather properly, sorting by size at our yard, controlling moisture before bagging, and preparing the documentation shipping lines and customs authorities require. Our customers deal with one accountable team from enquiry to bill of lading.
Four export grades covering the needs of food-service distributors, retail importers, master wholesalers and industrial processors — all 100% natural Nigerian hardwood.
Premium
Hand-selected large lumps of dense Nigerian hardwood — principally Ayin (Anogeissus leiocarpus) — graded for long, steady, high-heat burning in restaurants, grill houses, steakhouses and hospitality kitchens.
Best Seller
Uniform medium-sized hardwood lumps that light quickly, reach cooking temperature fast and give the clean, natural flavour that home and outdoor grilling customers expect.
Export Grade
Our core export grade: natural lump charcoal from dense Nigerian hardwoods such as Ayin and Acacia, in a mixed size range — a versatile, cost-effective option for distributors who grade or re-pack locally.
High Volume
Mixed hardwood charcoal, smalls and screened fines supplied in volume for briquette production, activated-carbon feedstock, metallurgical and other industrial applications.
Nigeria offers some of the world's finest hardwood charcoal. The difference is in how it is selected, prepared and shipped.

All FAQsWe export premium Nigerian hardwood charcoal in four main grades: restaurant-grade large lumps, premium BBQ charcoal (medium lumps), natural mixed-size hardwood lump charcoal, and industrial/bulk charcoal including smalls and fines. All grades are 100% natural hardwood with no chemical additives or binders.
Our standard minimum order is one 20-foot full container load (FCL). Larger programmes of multiple 40-foot containers per month can be arranged. We do not currently ship LCL (less than container load) consignments except for trial shipments agreed in advance.
Loading weight depends on lump size, bag format and destination regulations. As a general guide, a 20' container typically carries roughly 10–13 tonnes of bagged lump charcoal and a 40' high-cube container around 20–26 tonnes. We confirm the exact loading plan and estimated weight for your specific grade and packaging before booking.
For standard grades and plain export packaging, allow approximately 3–5 weeks from confirmed order and deposit to vessel departure from Lagos, subject to vessel schedules. Private-label packaging adds time for bag printing; we advise the exact schedule at quotation stage.
We typically work with a deposit on order confirmation with the balance against shipping documents, or an irrevocable letter of credit at sight. Exact terms depend on order size, destination and relationship history, and are agreed in the pro-forma invoice.
Yes. Pre-shipment samples can be dispatched by courier so you can check lump size, density and burn performance before committing to a container. Sample and courier costs are payable by the buyer and credited against the first order.
